Control zones are dynamically identified on a thematic map and work machine actuator settings are dynamically identified for each control zone. A position of the work machine is sensed and actuators on the work machine are controlled based on the control zones that the work machine is in, and based upon the settings corresponding to the control zone. When modification criteria are met, an actuator setting in a control zone can be modified, during operation. The control zone is then divided on a near real-time display into a harvested portion of the control zone, and a new control zone that has yet to be harvested, and that has the modified actuator setting value. A record is then generated and stored, for the harvested control zone, and for the new control zone.
